I have this older laptop and the CD-rom is busted. I need to get windows installed on it, but i don't know how to make it boot without the CD. I have a USB external HD, and i can load the Windows CD on there, but I don't know to make it boot off the HD, I mean it's a USB one. I can't open it up and hook it with an IDE cable because it's a laptop. Any help appreciated.
Thanks bre~
EDIT: the laptop doesn't have an option in the BIOS thing where you can tell it to "boot of USB" or have the USB as a secondary master. It has only:
IDE Removable
ATAPI Removable
CD-ROM
Auto
User
tell me which one to use.
thanks x2
